Family meet

At the exit of the airport. 

A woman dressed in a long black winter coat walked elegantly towards the exit gate. Her long legs were looking sexy as she was rocking her winter boots. Her long red hair was kept open and to make her more attractive she was wearing a beret cap. She exuded a confident and alluring aura as she walked past the crowd who couldn't help but look at her. 

The woman was so gorgeous with her fair skin, pale blue eyes, long beautiful and healthy red hair and freckles trailing her cheeks and nose that one couldn't help but wonder if it was stardust. 

It wasn't just her who was capturing all the attention, it was also the cute toddler who was holding her finger. Leon knew that his mommy was the prettiest woman in the world and it was fine with him when people stare at her because beautiful things are meant to be seen. Just like his mommy. 

The people were in awe of the little boy who walked as if he owned the world. The little prideful boy was too much for people's hearts to handle. 

"Mommy, Coco!" Leon pointed out at the other side where a little girl appeared with a tall and handsome man. 

"Coco!" Leon yelled.

Coco heard her brother's voice and looked at him. She saw both her brother and mommy standing together. She gave a quick glance at her father asking if she could go to them and Nathaniel nodded his head. 

"Mommy, "The adorable girl ran towards her mommy. As she reached her mother, the latter engulfed her in a big hug. "Mommy, I missed you." 

"I missed my Little Fairy too, "Roseanne answered. "How was your vacation?" 

"Mommy, please scold daddy later for me. He didn't take me to a lot of places. I had to stay in hotels a lot, "Coco complained, cutely. 

Roseanne looked at Nathaniel with fake anger and asked, "Nathan, how can you do this to our Coco? You should have brought her to all the places. We three will go on vacation and leave you in hotel rooms." 

"Yes, mommy, "Coco harrumphed. After a while, she said, "Mommy, I wanna visit the restroom." "Why didn't you tell me? We just walked past one on the way, "Nathan asked his daughter. 

"Daddy, you can't enter the ladies washroom, "Coco sighed. "When will you follow the rules? Coco feels embarrassed to go to the restroom with Daddy." 

Nathaniel let out an exasperated sigh, " 

Roseanne said to him, "Nathan, why don't you load the luggage in the car while I take Coco to the restroom. Leon, be with Nathan. Don't wander here and there." 

"Okay, mommy, "Leon spoke like a good boy. 

While Nathaneil was loading luggage in the car Leon wandered off to the other side of the airport as he saw a very eye-catching car parked there. He was addicted to car racing and loved all the coolest cars. This car was the same car that his favorite racer drove. It slipped his mind what his mother asked him to do and walked to the other side. 

As he was walking to that side, he collided with long and hard legs and fell on the ground. "Ah, "Leon groaned. 

"Are you okay, kid?" A very dark and scary voice asked him. 

As Leon looked up, he saw a man dressed in a black suit. This man was very tall and robust just like Nathaniel, Leon noted. He exuded a cold aura when he looked at the boy.

When the boy looked back at the man, he was struck by the familiar face that brought him to his deepest and painful memories. He found himself caring for the boy just because he reminded him of someone very close to his heart. 

"Where are your parents?" The man asked. 

"I didn't get lost, "The boy replied. "I am here to see this car." 

The boy pointed at the red Ferrari. "Is it yours?" 

"No, " the man answered. He didn't use such flashy cars. 

"Okay, then move, "Leon said and went to look at the car from close. 

"Do you like this car?" The man asked the boy whose face scrunched up to show his annoyance. For some reason, he liked annoying the little kid acting like a man. 

"If I didn't, why would I be here?" Leon rolled his eyes and said flatly. 

"Fair enough, " the man's lips twitched. 

On the other hand, when Roseanne and Coco came from the restroom, they didn't find Leon with Nathan who was still loading the luggage. 

"Where is Leon?" Roseanne asked. 

"He will be here seeing the cars, "Nathan answered. "He is a smart boy. He will not wander off anywhere." 

Roseanne sighed. "You are right." She saw her son with two men whose only silhouettes were visible to her. 

"Coco, go call your brother, "Roseanne said. 

"Okay, mommy, "Coco went to call her brother . 

"Leon!" Coco came shouting. "Mommy is calling for you!" 

When she saw that her brother was talking to unknown people, she said, "Why are you talking to strangers ? Didn't mommy ask us to not do that? What if he kidnaps you and calls our mommy for ransom? Our mommy will have to sell our coffee shop to free you, dummy." 

Leon exasperated with his sister's loud mouth. "Let's go!"

On the way back, he chided her, "Coco, we can't tell people that we are poor. It's a secret that stays in the family only." 

"Oh, is that so?" Coco asked, thinking deep. 

"Yes, next time don't do this." 

Behind him, the man named Johnson asked, "I wonder what amused Mr Hart?" Nicholas let out a hearty laugh. "Kids can be quite adorable." 

"I have three. All I can say is that they are pain in the ass, "Johnson answered with a sigh. 

Nicholas didn't say anything. He just looked at the family of four from far away. He could not make out the faces of the parents as they were facing the other side. All he could say was that the mother had red hair and the father looked like a handsome man. He saw the father putting kids in the Cadillac and then sat in the passenger seat while the woman sat in the driver's seat. For some reason, he couldn’t help but want to see the woman's face. 

Perhaps, it was the boy who resembled his late wife so much that he couldn't help but wonder if his mother was her. Before he could delve in Anne Rose's memories, he heard Johnson say, "Mr Hart, Miss Taylor is calling you." 

Nicholas' face broke into a small smile as he heard that Sabrina was calling him. "Tell her that we are leaving the airport and will be reaching her soon." 

Meanwhile, Coco and Leon were sitting on the backseat while Roseanne was driving and Nathaniel was sitting in the passenger seat. 

"How is the cafe doing?" Nathaniel asked. Five years ago, he fabricated Roseanne Deluca's identity and gave a new life to Anne Rose. He created a solid background for her. Whereas she changed her physical looks entirely by dying her hair red and changing her style over all. He could no longer guess that she was the same woman from five years ago. 

He not only made a fake identity for her but invested in a cafe which she had been running. She had worked quite hard and made it a successful business. Today, the cafe had ten branches in the country that she was running. The woman surprised him with her business mind. 

Anne Rose was a woman who was deprived of opportunities to showcase her best talent but Roseanne Deluca knew her worth and talents. Single handedly, she had raised two kids and was managing a successful business. In the world's eyes, she was a mother to two children while he was their father. Some years ago, they got divorced and now they are co-parenting

their kids together. When the truth was that Leon was her son with Nicholas Hart and Coco was his biological daughter. Coco lacked a mother and Leon lacked a father and both Anne and Nathaniel came to a decision that they would become parents to these children. 

On the backseat, Leon whispered in Coco's ears, "What did you find out?" 

"Your biological father lives in the USA, "Coco whispered in Leon's ear. "I tried to spy on my father but it became very hard. Our parents don't treat us as babies. They are always very careful in front of us." 

"I tried to inquire about Gmaa but she is a hard nut to crack, "Leon whispered back. "Coco, I know that your real mother is in the USA too. That's why Daddy didn't want to take you there." 

"Will we ever find out about our father and mother?" Coco whispered, sadly. 

"We will, "Leon said, stubbornly. "We will find them and ask them why they hurt our mommy and daddy. We will show them that just because they abandoned us we still lived a good life." 

"I want to meet my father and tell him that it is his loss not mine and mommy's, "Leon said, pridefully. 

Coco sadly whispered, "I just want to ask my mother why she hurt my daddy." 

The two kids hugged each other and vowed to find those two people and make them regret their decision.
